I'm with those that say keep the FR-S and get some seat time at the track and autocross. When you see an M3 get smoked by a good driver in some FWD econobox with nothing more than a few upgrades to its tires and suspension, you might reconsider your need for a turbo.

But if you've been to the track a few times and you just want the turbo for some fun on the highway, I would get the M235i. It's still a nice, nimble RWD car for the track, and plenty of power for highway pulls. Out of those three I think its the closest to a turbo FR-S.

I think if you really want to get your money's worth for a +$6k turbo kit on your FR-S, IMO you gotta max out all the usual track car mods first (tires, brakes, suspension, bolt ons, aero and of course, driver mod).
